Page 5 Heppner, Ore., Gazette-Times, Thursday, Aug. 8, 1874 Canning for fair can be fun, profit Home vegetable gardens are showing up in nooks, crannies and flower beds around the county in increas ing numbers this year. With that in mind, gar deners are being encouraged to show off their produce in competition at the Morrow County Fair. There is a class for just about everything grown in the home garden, and if there isn't a class one will be created. Judges look for uniformity in size, products without blemish and products which are standard in appearance for that particular vegetable or fruit.. In addition, there is an award for the most freakish and unusual fruit or vegetable and an award for the largest fruit or vegetable. Those wishing to know more about exhibiting in the fruit and vegetable division may contact the superintendents, Rev. and Mrs. Ed Cutting, Mrs. Fred Martin or Mrs. Annctta Linger. Not only is vegetable grow ling increasing in popularity, ' but so is home canning, if lids can be found. Special awards go to winners in the canning divisions. Ball Corporation awards a total of 10 dozen Ball "sculptured glass" canning jars and eight units of Ball "quilted crystal" jelly jars to winners in fruit, vegetable, jam and jellies divisions. Exhibits must be canned in Ball jars and sealed with Ball caps and lids. Kerr Company awards a total of nine dozen wide mouth quart jars and three dozen half pint jars.

While building is still in the planning stage on the outskirts of Rochester and will not be completed for four or five years, museum headquarters are located in the mansion that was Mrs. Strong's home. Five executives will be in charge of the new institution. Dr. Chenhall's title is director of data services.
